was not the rich blase of full brass band that he heard, but the sharp staccato of flies and drums playing soldiers march.
 The crowd in the street separated right and left. 'Leftl left! left! left" came the measured tread of the marchers, and the head of the mighty procession swept by.
 This was no carnival scene. The President looked down the long line but not float or barge or an allegorical tableau or decorated wagon was in sight. No maskers, no num- mers. Nothing but men plainly dressed in blue, most of them of middle age or beyond, marching always in grim earnest to the music of fife and drum.
 The guest of the city turned indignantly to the chairman of the committe on enter tainment, who stood just behind him, "What does this mean? Is an insult intended:'
 The committeeman shook his head urbane- ly and put his finger to his lips. Then he pointed down the line. It seemed to be end less.
 Still they came, platoon after platoon. "Left! left left left!"-a steady, rythmic tread, punctuated now and then by the clink ing beckle of pair of iron shod crutches.
 Some of the marehers wore empty coat sleeves pinned upon the breast. Some of them marched with difficulty. None of them glanced up at the balcony where the guests of the city stood. They moved straight onward as if they were marching to 8 combat.
 The President sighed. q did not know there were so many of them," he said.
 On they came-"left! left! left! left!"- thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of Union veterans. And every few minutes hoarse cheers went up from the crowd of spectators that lined the way. The cheers were no longer for the man on the balcony or for 1888. They were for the bull let ridden, tattered, ragged and blood stained battle flags that were borne by, and for the ] memory of the battle years in the sixties The minutes seemed hours to the Presi- dent, and the hours seemed an eternity, while he stood and reviewed the grim para. ders, who paid no heed to his presence At ! last welcome sound relieved his ears, weary of the monotonous tramping. He heard the rum bling of wheels. f'The Yelled Prophetr' somebody shouted: "Here he comesl" As the massive car approached, drawn by ] a score of white horses, the cheering below l became continuous. The guest of the city leaned over the balustrade. the better to sec the pageant. The car was handsomely deco ! rated with flowers and bunting.

A Famous Doctor

Once said that the secret of good health consisted in keeping the head cool, the feet warm, and the bowels open. Had this eminent physician lived in our day, and known the merits of Ayers Pills as all arerient, he would certainly have recommended them, as so many of his distinguished successors are doing.
 The celebrated Dr. Farnsworth, of Norwich, ConA.. recommends Ayar's Pills as the best of all remedies for "Intermittent Fevcrs.''
 Dr. I. t. Fowler, of Bridgeport, Conn.,, says: ''A Aver':s fills are highly and universally spoken CT by the people about here. 1 make daily use of them ill my practice"

The Yelled Prophet.

He dreamed that he was already in St. Louis, and stood on the balcony of the Southern Hotel waiting for the procession. The streets below surged with enthusiastic citizens. They all threw up their hats and shouted: "droYer Cleveland for 1S9S!"
 It sounded far off, as shouts do in dreams, yet the welcome words were distinctly intel- ligible.
 Then burst of music announced that the bead of the procession was nearing the place where the President stood. The guest ot the city started back as if in surprise. For it

 vinced.
 From the Chicago Tribunel
 General Grant was rarely known 10 smile, and the occasions were few indeed when his dignity so far broke down as to permit him to laugh outright-though he wss far from being devoid of relish for good story or joke. There was one time in his life, how ever, when he indulged in 8 roar of laughter that might have been heard for a quarter of a mile. It was while he was filling the pres idential chair and made his trip to Des Moines, Iowa, and delivered his famous speech on education-the first time it was discovered that ne really could make good speech. He had been in St. Louis and came up the old Northern Missouri railroad into Iowa. He passed through the little town of Bloomfield, twelve miles from the Missouri line, at nine o'clock at night A crowd had assembled, conspicuous among them being the village topper, who always filled up on great occasions, and had therefore risen to the emergency and was in 8 condition on the arrival of the presidential party to hobnob with king. The train halted at the station for several minutes, and in response to cheers President Grant appeared on the plat- form and lifted his hat in stiff, schoolboy fashion. The old toper looked at him with blinking eyes and then deliberately clam bered up on the platform, steadied himself by the railing and deliberately thrust his face close to the sphinx-like countenance be- fore him. There was dead silence, the au- dacity of the act causing the townspeople to stare in dumb amazement, while the few persons surrounding Grant were equally as- a m sway ed and stared, and then said:
 "Ish zis Presh'dunt Grant?'
 The features of the hero of Appomattox relaxed little as he nodded afirmatively.
 "Come, now, hones', pardner," persisted the toper. "Shay, or man, y ain't tryin' to fool fellar, are you!'
 The scene was cut short by the town mar shal reaching up and yanking the intruder to the ground; but it had such an expressible sunnyside that the 'fsilent man. burst into 8 hearty guffaw, in which those around him joined as the train moved away.

A Word About Catarrh.

.sIt is the mucous membrane, that wonderful semfuid envelope surrounding the delicate tissues of the air and food passages, that Catarrh makes its stronghold. Once established it eats into the very vitals, and renders life but a long-drawn breath of misery and disease, duling the sense of hearing trammeling the power of speech, destroy ing the faculty of smell, tainting the breath, and by creeping from simple cold in the head, it as saults the membranous lining and envelops the bones eating through the delicate coats and caus- ing Inflammation sfoughing and death.

The distillers are complaining because they have lost much of their foreign trade, the chief cause for which they attribute to unfa- vorable commercial treaties. A few years ago the exports of alcohol amounted to be- tween 100000 and 250,0O0 barrels year, but now they are not 10 per cent. of this. In the meantime there has been an over- production of spirits.

of the condition of the various vessels
during my stay there and will give you o
few samples. / will ask you to bear in
mind that in every case No. ! means the

therefore the liquor is being drawn tor the
~clarifier loft while Nos. 8 or 8 represent
the cell containing the exhausted chips,
and which. therefore, is about to be dis.
charged. [ must ask you further to re-
member that the Aska battery is dischar-
ged by what 10 known as "the wet process;
that ia to say, the bottom of the cell ia
taken away and the 1925 lbs. of exhausted
chips aud 200 gallons of hot water are
allowed to fall out AS they please. The
disadvantage of this process is that you
waste 200 gallons of hot water every time
you empty a diffuSer. At NonpAreSt we
have the dry process ; that is to say, we
force the hot water from cell No. 8 into cell
No.. 8 by means of cOmpreSsed air, and when
that has been accomplished wetake away
the bottom of the diffuser and let the c0mpa.
rativeIy dry chips fall ont. Here then
was the state of the battery when arrived
at Aska: No. L, 1910 F.; No2, 40; No 8,
l04; No. 4, 1856; No. 5, 2O5; No. 6, 2l2;
No. Z, 200; No. s, 200; No. 9, 100. You
will observe that No. l is the lowest in tenn.
perature, because the hot juice has just
come into contact with the mass of cold
chips, through which it has to pass on its
way to the clarifer loft. There is also q
desire to let down the heat 10 the last two
or three vessels, partly to avoid wasting
heat, aud partly because the chips if at
boiling point would scald the bare feet of
the coolies who have to handle them down
below. Here again is a statement shelving
the density of the juice in the battery cells
before drawing off the liuuor:-

You will please note that the above den.
sites are all corrected to a normal tempe.
nature of So F., and you may further note
that whereas vessel No. l shews q density
Of only 1853 Balling, which is about equal
to AZ Beaune, yet the liquor was discharg.
ed from that vessel into the clariher at
11.75 Balling, or 6,5 Beaum6, the reason
for this being that, on the Aska battery
at any rate, the apparatus for ascertainfng
the density of the juice requires you to
draw your sample from the extreme top of
the vessel where the density ia lowest. In,
deed | found that the density of the juice
drawn from the top ofaHye vessel really in.
dictated the density Of the juice atthe bot
tom Of the preceding vessel, and so on.
Here is another statement giving the tenn
perature aud density of the battery just
after the discharge of the 220 gallons of
thick juice to the clariier:-

These three statements will, l think, ena.
BILE you to form some idea Of the normal

that we very rarely got the diffusion juice

ing 81, which amounts to abont 80 per

that he threw away only about 81 per cent.

show . slight reaction,--they coloured
the paper about as much as ones

be mentioned in connection with diffusion
is that at Aska they always draw rather
more than the entire contents of aevessel
from the battery. For INSTANCE, al Aska,
the vessels hold Just 400 gallons of jnice in

A CURIOUS CASE.
A Town Council Imprisoned for Con.
tempt of Federal Court

Town Council Imprisoned for Con.
tempt of Federal Court.
LINCOLN, Neb., November 29.-The
mayor and ten or twelve members of the
city council of this city are now incarce-
rated in the Douglass county Jail, at
Omaha, by order of Judge Brewer, of the
United States court, they having refused
to pay the fines imposed by the court for
contempt, aggregating $500.
The history of the case is about az fol-
lows: Some time in July last charges
were preferred against Police Judge Par
sons, by number of citizens, alleging
malfeasance in Office and mlsappropria-
tion of funds paid into his hands as fines
for violation of city ordinances.
The council decided to investigate the
affairs of the police Judge. This was
done, and the investigation resulted in a
determination on the part of the council
to oust the police judge. After the coun-
cil had decided upon this action, but be-
fore the final vote declaring the office
vacant had been taken, the police Judge
applied to Judge Brewer, of the federal
court, for an injunction, alleging that he
was being tried for On alleged offense by
an ex-post-facto law.
Temporary injunction was served
on the council, but that body believing
that the case had been wantonly misrepre-
sented to the federal court for the pur-
pose, gaining time, decided to disregard
the injunction, and thereupon took final
action in the removal of Police Judge
Parsons, and confirmed the mayors ap-
pointment of his successor.
The council was then cited to appear
before Judge Brewer to answer to the
charge of contempt. At this hearing the
court held that, although it might not
have jurisdiction in the case as originally
brought yet it was contempt for the coun-
Gil to disregard the temporary injunction,
and fined them accordingly, in sums from
$50 20 $50 each. The council decided to
test the case in the highest court in the
land, and hence refused to pay the fines
and went to jail. A legal representative
has already left for Washington to insti-
tute habeas corpus proceedings in the
United States supreme court

Special Telegram to the Statesman.

Special Telegram to the Statesman.
WACO, November 29.-This morning at
about 3 O'Clock Mary Ross, colored
woman who lives on South Fifth street,
heard the cries of an infant in the street,
and opening the door discovered negro
infant wrapped scantily in rags. She
took the child in and cared for it, and to-
day notified the officers. 1t is strange
looking obi set; small enough to be thir-
teen months old. and wrinkled enough to
be 80 years old. 1t was nearly frozen when
found, and half famisned for food, and its
condition evinced that it has suffered from
brutal starvation and neglect. A sma
piece of paper was pinned to its clothes
stating only that the child was four years
old. 1t can stand alone, and has
a full set of teeth, and talks,
but it stammers and shutters
so that the words can not be understood.
Several colored people, who saw the child,
say that its mother is colored woman
of unsavory reputation, who has made her
home for some time in East Waco.
Oliver Lilly was arrested to-day on a
charge of voting illegally in the last city
election.

Ex-U. s. SENATOR JONES.
Physicians Say They Will Testify to His
Insanity.

Physicians Say They Will Testify to His
Insanity.
DETROIT, November 29.--No steps look
ing toward judicial investigation as to
the state of Senator Jones' mind have yet
been taken. Friends of Mr.. Jones, who
are opposed to an investigation, say that
1t will not take place, while those who
have been urging such course persist
that 1t is the wisest thing to be done,
under the circumstances. This difference
of opinion has resulted in the creation Of
two factions, one advising heroic measur Ia,
to induce the senator 10 leave Detroit, or
engage in the practice of his profession
the other against such step as absurd
and unjustifable. They hold it ridicu-
lous to think of hauling up a man as
insane, who has troubled no one, and
simply chooses TO stay In Detroit.
A good deal of feeling has been aroused
between these adverEe parties. Both
have advanced money TO Mr. Jones.
To the reporter, Mr.. Jones said:
ut is strange that man who has seen as
much Of the world az have shouli be
compelled TO receive advice from some
who are seeking to govern my course,
who should know better than / what is
best to be done, or understend better
reasons for doing it, IL will eventually
be shown that am acting for the best"
To another the senator said that his
